They are: K8YSE, KQ6EA, W7LRD, WB2OQQ, KO4MA, \nand K9STH. It was interesting; there was consensus on the 70cm uplink \nbeing rhcp but really no consensus on what the 2m downlink polarization \nshould be.\nI recently picked up some used crossed yagis and a rotator that I can \nuse for elevation control so we'll see what I can put together that \nmight perform better than my current \"cheap yagis\" at a fixed 15 degree \nelevation.\nThanks again for the help.\n73,\nEd, K0NW\n\nFrom: Andrew Glasbrenner <[email protected]> To: edroth2006 \n<[email protected]>, [email protected] Subject: [amsat-bb] Re: \nAO-7 Antenna Polarization Message-ID: \n<18497234.1372814703462.JavaMail.root@elwamui-rubis.atl.sa.earthlink.net> Content-Type: \ntext/plain; charset=UTF-8 I dug out some old books including OSCAR: The \nHam Radio Satellites by Dave Ingram, K4TWJ, and OSCAR Amateur Radio \nSatellites by Stratis Caramanolis, and the AMSAT Journal from December \n1974. All three agree that in the Northern Hemisphere, AO-7 \npolarizations are as follows: Mode B uplink and downlink RHCP Mode A \nuplink LHCP Mode A downlink linear 435.1 beacon LHCP The turnstile is \nshared on both 2m and 70cm.
